Currently we have 11 classes available, class sizes range from 8-15 students per class. We aim to keep our class sizes as minimal as possible, so that our students are able to benefit more.
In our school, we mainly use the textbook 《中文》(暨南出版社）for our Mandarin classes, although class teachers also have freedom to choose additional teaching materials to suit their classes. This could include Chinese nursery rhymes, stories, news etc.
